Covid-19 (Childcare): Statements
A written response would be perfect.

Rhetoric & votes →On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 52 of 1,007 decisive votes (14 abstentions excluded). Read it as a government-or-opposition indicator rather than a measure of influence — the figure is near 100% for members supporting the government of the day and near 0% for those opposing it.

Covid-19 (Agriculture, Food and the Marine): Statements
It would be generous to describe the supports given to Irish farmers during this crisis as pathetic. Today, the Minister referred to schemes from other Departments. He spoke about providing money to farmers to which they were entitled anyway but just that little bit sooner. He also spoke about the reliance on the EU package of €76 million. That package has been already described here as inadequate. I would go so far as to say that it is nothing short of an insult to our family farmers. That package should be compar…

On a point of order, if we are exporting 90% of our beef, how does it make sense for factories to import beef?

Covid-19 (Social Protection): Statements

Those who have had reasons to claim for these new schemes, whether it is workers applying for the pandemic unemployment payment or businesses accessing the wage subsidy scheme, are going through a traumatic time. As well as concern for the well being of their families,…

European Council Meeting: Statements
Two years ago, I was present in the European Parliament when the Taoiseach addressed Members on the future of Europe. I feared then that he had handed over a blank cheque, as he was the first European leader to commit to making an increased contribution to the EU budget, and, crucially, he did so without setting out what we would expect in return. Now, we are faced with the prospect of hundreds of millions of euro of additional Irish taxpayers' money going into the EU budget while, at the same time, seeing a reduct…

Nomination of Taoiseach
Gabhaim buíochas leis an gCeann Comhairle agus guím comhghairdeas air agus ar a chlann arís tar éis dó a bheith tofa inniu. Táim an-bhródúil a bheith ag caint inniu mar ionadaí do mhuintir an Chabháin agus Muineacháin. I am honoured and privileged to stand here as a representative of the Cavan-Monaghan constituency. As the House may know, it was the constituency that returned the hunger striker Kieran Doherty as a Deputy in 1981 during darker times for our country. It was also the constituency that elected Caoimhgh…
